This has to be the worst Echoes visuals EVER. It proves that A.I. has neither visual talent, emotions, nor soul. At 1st, I concluded that there was no connection between the visual chaos and Echoes, just A.I. generated imagery, with the sound track added afterwards. Then came the later part...

Hi Laserist & Doug, Pleased to meet you, Doug. You sound like a fellow retired Laserium laserist. I was at the London Planetarium '78-80, prior to losing my mind to go freelance. Yes, with your posts, this old thread only just appeared on my 'Lounge" list, as well, while heading to post on the...

KQO was free running.

In that Dark Side number we used swept diamond spirals. My memory of most of our choreography isn't the best (I haven't done a show for 25 years!). However, since I performed Dark Side more than 3000 times, by my estimation, THAT show's choreography remains a bit clearer. I think I performed that...

Ron correctly observed a few posts ago that I haven't proven the KQO works in the 4 channel system yet. This video does that. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r09_2HxrQo4 Missing is the effect where it looks like there is a sinusoid imposed on the amplitude of the spiral on the way down. I'm not...

I was able to do this without any issue with an external PCIe x1 to PCI adapter card (computer is Lenovo ThinkCentre M83 i5-4570 Quad 3.20GHz 16GB RAM 256GB running Windows Professional). Here is a link and the reseller is "Trotwei Blue":...

Thanks Adam, great info and write-up. The meter we used was made by United Detector Technology or UTD, Model 40x Opto-Meter. Here are a few photos from my Ebay posting when I sold it about 5 years ago. UDT is now consolidated into this group...

The rules really haven't changed all that much. The collection aperture consideration is still applicable at venues where it would be reasonable for audience members to bring binoculars, such as a large outdoor football stadium, for example. Not so much in a nightclub, however. Regarding the...

I look forward to checking it out.

License has been changed to LGPL. The point of the code is to live on and be available and not be restrictive. If others do great things with it, then all the better. Improvements that were on my mind: - finish Moonbugs - include support all popular DACs (!) That will make more people happy....

Ok thank you femtoman. It is a pity for such a nice machine! Please share if you make any progress, and naturally I will do the same. :)

Thanks for considering it. I think SDL uses it. LGPL is basically the GPL however it allows for the code to be in a library without affecting the licensing of the code that calls the library. Any changes (improvements/bug fixes) to the library code needs to be available for everyone. I am...

sure I will consider it. I just need to read up on what it means exactly. I need to get better at understanding all that licensing stuff :-) At this time, anyone who want to look at the code needs a github account. Just so you know.

Hello David 65532, to date I have not received a user manual for the FL1000 laser fibbre. I'll let you know if I get a copy. Regards Arnold

Im sorry for your loss, Steve. I will give you a holler in a little bit.

Bonjour femtoman! as-tu pu obtenir une copie du manuel ? En regardant vos photos, je viens d'en recevoir une d'un modèle similaire au vôtre. Si vous pouvez partager avec moi, je vous serais très reconnaissant. (traduit en français par google)

I am arriving a bit late … I am looking for the manual for the Highlight 1000FL not sure if it was posted somewhere and if it is possible to share with me too? If it is a big file maybe it can be uploaded somewhere rather than post here or email. Thank you for your help!!

The original Martin Luther would have loved this...

Back in most, but not all, of the 80's decade we did a handful of varianced audience or sky scanning. The agency of the time that interrogated and analyzed the empirical evidence we had to gather that proved the worst-case energy density per unit time was below the established standards was the...

And I think there are many scholarly examples of good laser show points in this excerpt. Nice work.

Okay, let's just say you've been busy... Thanks again!

Yes, but it's a new thread to me - plus I REALLY like the distinction you made: it actually is more like dancing than painting! "Painting with light" is a description that goes back well over a hundred years so maybe my response isn't all that late! :)

Thanks Doug! But it's a really old thread ;-)

Great balls of fire! That's super great. GPL V3... it's OK however would you consider the LGPL to allow dynamic linking?

Ooooo..."dancing with light"...I LIKE that!!!

Here is an excerpt to make scholarly points about laser shows. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JRTmLngpfos

I've just put my lasercode in a github repository: https://github.com/ZoofPL/laserCode Hope it's done right. It's not public (yet) so anyone who wants to have a peek and/or work on it can request access by shooting me a PM. I think it might need some work to get everything configured...
